The Iron Horse MKIII range are great XC/All Mountain bikes perfectly suited to UK trails.  They are as happy on long XC climbs as they are descending the rough stuff.  I bought this bike in April 2009 and rode it a few times over the summer.  It then had a handful of outings over the following year and has been locked in my shed for well over a year now without even turning a wheel.  Because its seen so little use its in fantastic condition, barely a mark anywhere on the frame.  The bike has been well looked after, the only thing that might need some attention is the brakes which have gone a bit "soft".  They still work fine but could perform better and probably just need bled.

This would be a fantastic bike for anyone who is looking to get into mountain biking or wants to upgrade from a hardtail.  Would also make a great Christmas pressie!  Its kitted out with some great components including the Fox shock, Rock Shox forks, Easton components and Shimano/SRAM running gear.  Looks fantastic in matt silver as well!

Drop me a PM if you have any questions or are interested in buying.


Apologies for the low res photo, will try and get some better ones at the weekend.
